In particular, Park emphasized that he would make efforts to solve the Chinese version of the game, which has been actually blocked by domestic games for more than four years.

Park Bo-kyun said in a game industry meeting held at the Korea Game Industry Association on the 1st, We will make special efforts to expand the panel by cooperating with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Economic Affairs to expand the issuance of the Chinese version.

Overall, Park was favorable to the game industry.
